It's not about being a traditionalist, it's just that it's silly. The season opener is played at 4am est a full week before the season starts. Plus now the Dodgers get to throw Kershaw in games 1 & 2, which is a minor advantage, but an advantage none the less. I'm not ranting over it, I just think it's a bit dumb since, as you said, what difference does it make?
